Raising Paladins

Episode 6. Tira’s Homemade Lemon Tea (1)

“I… … Knight?”

“Who told you to open your mouth?”

“omg!”

Daryl and his gang lined up in a row in the courtyard of the temple.

There was a terrible fear on his face.

“Stand upright.”

“yes!”

alert posture.

It is different from the normal attention posture.

If I even moved my fingertips, the stick would fly straight away.

Rather than being at attention, they are more like death row inmates who were put on the guillotine with only their heads.

‘Even if you hit me, I pick only the places that hurt the most… … .’

‘Are you from a dismissed court advisor?’

‘This is the first time I’ve experienced this kind of pain!’

A whopping 5 to 1 fight.

It was over in less than 5 minutes.

It was rather a one-sided massacre than a fight.

I’ve only heard one stick, but how can you do such a skill… … .

Even from the point of view of winning, I was curious about the secret.

“I… … Excuse me, but what are you doing?”

f*ck!

“evil!”

Stupidly forgetting the warning, Daryl grabbed his collarbone and collapsed.

But he had to jump up like a ttogi.

“Keep your mouth shut until I give you permission. From now on, two at a time.”

“sorry!”

Pain as if stabbed in the middle of the collarbone with an awl!

Anyone who hasn’t tried this will never know.

Daryl tried to stay still.

However, she couldn’t stop the tears flowing from the pain she couldn’t adapt to.

Looking at Daryl, Carlos let out a low laugh.

‘There will be a million skeleton soldiers I’ve defeated, you thugs!’

Bone, blood, skin, guts.

Basic elements that make up the human body.

Among them, Carlos has extensive knowledge of human bone structure.

Why?

Because I’ve been fighting skeletons all my life.

It means that he knows very well how to hit a certain part of a bone with enough force and the whole bone will collapse.

Daryl and his gang also have the same bone structure as a skeleton soldier.

Thanks to that, he won a 5-to-1 fight with just one stick.

The divine power coated at the end of the stick was a bonus.

“It doesn’t matter who I am. What matters is who you will live as in the future.”

As the sick looked on, Carlos said.

“If you want to live as a gangster like you do now, I will completely remodel your minds. With this small stick.”

“… … !”

A terrifying warning.

The gang licked their lips.

“One, since I am a paladin who serves God, I will show mercy. From now on, the five of you will become the servants of the temple.”

“Joe, seed?”

Daryl opened his mouth again.

This time, even Carlos did not wield a stick.

Because I needed an explanation of how these five would live in the future.

“There is no knights yet, but there will be soon. At that time, each of you will be able to serve one paladin and become a proper squire. Until then, I was in charge of chores and chores at the temple, especially washing the clothes and bandages worn by the sick. Got it?”

“I-that’s… … oh!”

Daryl was about to ask something.

I closed my eyes tightly at the flying stick.

I thought a terrible pain would come, but for some reason I don’t feel anything.

Daryl carefully opened his eyes.

“omg!”

A stick that stops right in front of your eyes!

Daryl shuddered.

“Does anyone have family or elderly parents to look after?”

Coincidentally, most of Hanson’s gang members are orphans.

Hanson’s strategy is to take children who live begging in the market and make them his own.

Thanks to that, the five people, including Daryl, were single.

“None.”

Carlos smiles contentedly when no one raises a hand.

He looks incredibly happy.

Conversely, to Daryl, it was like a devil’s smile from hell.

“I would have robbed crones at the Bona Mana Market in the name of protection money and lived well with it. But since I’ve been there, nothing like that has happened. The rest of the gang will suffer the same fate, so consider yourself lucky to have adapted to this life sooner. Got it?”

“yes… … .”

“Your voice is small. Got it?!”

“yes! All right!”

The spirited recruits responded with a kiss.

Carlos pointed to Tira, who was standing nearby.

“He is the senior priest who will instruct you on many things, including laundry. Be polite and say hello.”

“You give the woman instructions?”

f*ck! right!

“Oh! Eek!”

This time, the guy who opened his mouth and was beaten was Peter.

Daryl looked at Peter with a pitiful look.

‘Idiot, you should know first! You have to live and see!’

The next day, you can go there and think about it.

Right now, it is urgent to have time to discuss avoiding that terrifying stick.

After that, make a proper plan and escape the temple.

It was Daryl’s operation.

First of all, you have to be obedient and behave like a dog that listens well.

“She is not a woman, but a senior priest. what?”

“Seo, you are the senior priest!”

“yes. I’ll tell you in advance, but I like skills more than age, and I like silent efforts rather than cubic information. Greet you first.”

“Pi, my name is Peter.”

Peter, who had fallen, stood up and bowed his head.

The declaration ceremony of the scary thugs who dominated the market just a while ago!

Tira’s face went white.

She was unexpectedly greeted.

“Ah yes… … nice to meet you… … .”

What the hell does all this mean?

The guys who had been making loud noises in the market until just the other day ago are now gently wagging their tails in front of Carlos.

It’s Hanson’s gang who can’t even touch the market merchants or even the police… … .

In particular, that ‘Daryl’ was quite famous as the leader of the gang.

But now, Daryl and the thugs will help him do the laundry.

From Tira’s point of view, it was fortunate that she was not surprised.

“Next, you!”

“This is Daryl. I will do my best!”

“good. next.”

That’s how all five of them finished saying hello(?) to Tira.

Tira still looks bewildered.

Carlos came over.

“Tira.”

“yes?”

“I’ll fill in more later, so use them for now.”

“ah… … .”

Of course, the temple desperately needs help not only in laundry but also in other places.

But what is urgent right now is the people who will do the laundry.

But five strong-looking young men fell off?

In fact, I am very happy.

But worries still remain.

‘Will you listen to me… … ?’

Even if Carlos is scared and obedient now, if Tira is left alone, she may change suddenly.

They’re the thugs of Hanson’s gang.

Tira was about to talk about it, but Carlos spoke too quickly.

“I know what you’re worried about.”

Carlos tapped Tyra on the shoulder.

He stared at the thugs again with a stern expression.

“Before work, before eating, before sleeping, before going to the toilet. everyone let me And make sure to work only where there are many people watching. If you sneak away in a secluded place or go unnoticed, I will find you and punish you. The same goes for making rude remarks to seniors. Got it?”

Booung-!

A menacingly swung stick!

cut through the air

The gang flinched and replied.

“All right!”

“good.”

Carlos finished the mental armament of the new recruits.

He spoke to Tyra again.

“Didn’t you say you were overworked?”

“Oh, yes! I have to wash the bandages, and I have to wash the pus-stained clothes and the old diapers!”

“These guys will clean it up for you, so go quickly.”

“yes! Wow!”

Tira is overjoyed when she realizes that the new recruits have been completely tamed by Carlos!

Seeing these two people, Daryl and the gang trembled inwardly.

‘Like buying and selling toys… … .’

‘pus? diaper?’

The five of them trudged along after Tira, looking down on their faces.

however.

“for a moment.”

Carlos called them over.

And held out a small jar.

“The servants will no longer need crones. put it all here The money needed to eat and live will be provided monthly from the temple.”

“… … .”

I have already become a diaper washer, but what should I do with my lingering attachment to money?

With resigned faces, the gang unpacked the money bags and poured them into the pot.

Tsar! Clink!

Golden crones that make you smile just by looking at them!

There was only regular Cron and Micron, but no Mega Cron, but Carlos was satisfied.

A bright smile appeared on Tira’s face as she worried about the poor temple situation.

“Stop going. And just in case, I’m talking about it.”

“… … ?”

“If you get caught hiding money, you will see hell.”

Jjallang, jjallang!

Peter puts the crones he had hidden in his socks into the jar with a terrified look on his face.

Then Daryl gave out one, and the others gave out one or two, and Carlos nodded.

Daryl and the others shook their heads at Carlos’ careful and meticulous extortion.

‘Even the emergency fund is completely wiped out… … .’

‘Even Hanson-hyung doesn’t do this… … .’

‘A terrible bastard!’

A life in which intense labor leads to thorough schedule management!

It was a chance (?) of rehabilitation that came to Daryl and the gang.

***

“Huh… … .”

Carlos walking inside the temple after saving five lambs.

A long sigh escaped from his mouth.

‘The Dawn Bridge is tilted like this!’

Cobwebs on the ceiling are charming.

Pillars cracked here and there, so it wouldn’t be strange if they collapsed at any time.

There were empty seats where art must have been placed.

Crucially, all the glass paintings, which can be said to be the symbol of the temple, have disappeared.

“Yu, where did the glass painting go?! A glass painter that connects the heavenly light and the ground as one!”

vitrification.

Also known as stained glass.

Literally, the art of putting colors and pictures on glass windows through which light enters.

Glass painting makes believers who visit the temple feel the sanctity of light, so more donations… … .

‘No, not this.’

Carlos, who had bad thoughts because of too strong emotions.

This kind of thinking never suits him, a supreme paladin.

He shook his head and cleared his thoughts.

Anyway, glass painting is an art that deepens the faith of believers.

The place where such a glass painting was supposed to be was covered with a rough-fitted glass window with traces of being ripped off.

‘God of the sun… … !’

A fallen temple with new flaws appearing even if it’s cracked!

Because of lack of money, he urgently took it away from Hanson’s gang, and because of lack of manpower, he hired (?) five new servants.

But looking at it, it’s not even close to that level.

It was like pouring water into a bottomless dock!

‘This… … We have to rebuild from the cornerstone!’

You need a regular fixed income, not a one-off profit.

The manpower management method also needs to be overhauled.

Intermediate priest Eric approached Carlos while he was thinking about that.

“I… … Are you sick?”

“… … ?”

“Would you like to go with me for a minute? The high priest wants to see you.”

“A high-ranking priest?”

“Yes, I have something to say to the sick.”

“So be it.”

Eric still has a sullen look on his face.

Carlos followed him.
